SILVER. SKATE. SEVENTIES - HUGH HOLLAND
In the 1970s, photographer Hugh Holland captured the rise of skateboarding in sun-drenched, drought-stricken Southern California.
This never-before-published black-and-white collection follows young skaters carving through empty pools, drainage ditches, and suburban streets—haunts that inspired the legendary Dogtown and Z-Boys. The blond hair, tanned skin, tube socks, these kids embodied the raw, rebellious spirit of early skate culture.
